I read this novel twice (after learning it was the Pope's favorite book!) and won't re-read since it's so long, but I'll enjoy what others say about it.

I've wanted to read this book for a long time. I'm excited that we will be sharing insights this coming July.

I've read this book and might not have time for a complete re-read but will try to pop in for your discussions. I'm excited for those of you who haven't read it, it's one of my most favorite books!!! Enjoy!!
